Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 250 Arrival in Tokyo
After signing the contract, Lin Daoqiu left.

Sammo Hung, who was holding the script, fell into deep thought.

"Elder Brother, what should we do now?"

Yuen Biao was naturally not the one who made up his mind, he still listened to Sammo Hung most of the time.

Sammo Hung didn't speak but shook his head, it seemed that he didn't intend to ask Jackie Chan to act in "Flying Dragon".

"Actually, big brother, although Mr. Lin didn't say it explicitly, I think he wants us to find Aaron to act."

In fact, there is no need for Yuen Biao to say that Sammo Hung has already guessed it.

"You don't object?"

Sammo Hung suddenly turned to look at Yuen Biao. After all, Yuen Biao was the one who had the most competition with Jackie Chan.

Now that "Killer's Trenches" has come to this, Yuen Biao should take this opportunity to find a way to overtake the opponent.

Let Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang take a look at who is really worth investing in.

When asked by Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao didn't know how to answer. Originally, he wanted Sammo Hung to make up his mind.

But now that the question was thrown at him, he was suddenly speechless.

"Let me think about it."

Seeing Yuen Biao's appearance, Sammo Hung knew that the other party could not make up his mind for a while.

Although he said he wanted to let himself decide, but if he really invited Jackie Chan, then Yuen Biao would probably not be happy in his heart.

When Lin Daoqiu left Xiangjiang, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao hadn't decided who would be the leading actor, but he believed that the other party would figure it out before long.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking?"

On the plane to RB, Brigitte Lin and Lin Daoqiu's seats were arranged together.

"It's nothing, I'm just wondering if Sammo Hung will ask Jackie Chan to act in the end."

Regarding the matter of "Flying Dragon", Brigitte Lin had heard Lin Daoqiu talk about it before.

And she didn't know about Yuen Biao and Jackie Chan at the beginning. After Lin Daoqiu briefly talked to her, she realized that they had such a relationship now.

"Since you have handed over the matter to Sammo Hung, don't worry about these things and relax."

Brigitte Lin stretched out her hand to rub Lin Daoqiu's head. She knew that the other party had been busy recently, and now she was finally able to rest.

And the promotion to RB this time is tantamount to a leisure trip for Brigitte Lin.

Resting his head on Lin Qingxia's shoulder, Lin Daoqiu planned to follow her advice and take a good rest for a while.

As for what Sammo Hung will choose in the end, it has nothing to do with him.

Even if there is no Jackie Chan in this movie, with the strength of Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, it should not be a big problem to break the box office of tens of millions.

If you add the money from selling ports, it will definitely make more money than those old-fashioned kung fu comedies they made before.

…………

This time "Mission Impossible" Shaw is cooperating with RB's Toho, the full name is Tokyo Takarazuka Pictures Co., Ltd.

The earliest cooperation between Shaw Brothers and Dongbao dates back to 1956, when Dongbao and Shaw Brothers collaborated on a "Legend of the White Snake".

This time Dongbao heard that the movie cost tens of millions of dollars, which really shocked them.

At this time, 1 US dollar can be exchanged for 240 yen, and 1000 million US dollars is 28 billion yen.

Such a production fee of 24 billion is simply unimaginable for them.

Because if such a movie is made by them, it means that it will have to get at least tens of billions in the box office to be able to make up for it.

In 1980, the box office champion of RB's live-action movie "Kage Warrior" also won 27 billion yen at the time.

And the production fee of Lin Daoqiu's "Mission Impossible" is already close to their box office champion, so it's no wonder that Dongbao people are so shocked.

After getting off the plane and entering the airport lobby, Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin saw from a distance that two men and a woman were holding a sign with their names on it.

And when Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin just walked in front of them, the other party immediately recognized their identities.

But what she recognized was not Lin Daoqiu, but Brigitte Lin.

"Hello, Ms. Lin, I am the interpreter who received you this time. My name is Xiaoqin, and I am also from Baodao. These two are the staff sent by Dongbao to receive you, Mr. Yoshikawa and Mr. Matsuda."

"You two have worked hard all the way. The car is already waiting outside and the hotel has been arranged. Please come with us."

The older one was Masaichi Yoshikawa. He was the section chief of the No. [-] External Relations Section of Dongbao, and he was in charge of reception. Matsuda who was with him was Yoshikawa's subordinate.

"Trouble the two of you."

Lin Daoqiu nodded, and then left the airport with them.

This time, Dongbao attached great importance to the arrival of Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin, and specially arranged a five-star hotel for them, hoping that they could live comfortably.

After arriving at the hotel, the waiter helped Lin Daoqiu and the others take the salute upstairs, while Matsuda and Yoshikawa followed Lin Daoqiu.

"The journey is tiring, so it won't prevent the two of you from resting. President Matsuoka will hold a welcome banquet for the two of you tomorrow."

It was almost evening when they arrived in Tokyo. Naturally, Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin couldn't have the energy to attend any reception banquet at this time.

So Toho's president, Isao Matsuoka, chose the next day for the banquet.

Matsuda and Yoshikawa were about to leave after speaking, but Lin Daoqiu stopped them.

"Please find a male translator for me."

After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, Xiaoqin was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand why the other party made such a request. Could it be that she did something wrong?

Seeing Xiaoqin looking at himself nervously, if Lin Daoqiu insisted on changing, Dongbao's people would definitely not refuse.

Brigitte Lin next to her felt that Lin Daoqiu's request was a bit inexplicable, but she thought Xiaoqin was pretty good.

"Why do we need to change people? Isn't Xiaoqin very good? Just let Xiaoqin translate for us, there is no need to change people."

It seems that Brigitte Lin's attitude is very firm.

But Lin Daoqiu didn't think about replacing Xiaoqin, both of them misunderstood what they meant.

But Matsuda and Yoshikawa couldn't understand Lin Daoqiu's words, so they could only look at Xiaoqin blankly, and wanted her to quickly translate what Lin Daoqiu said just now.

"During this time, you can concentrate on being responsible for Miss Lin. As for why I need a male interpreter, then it's inconvenient to tell me."

Although I don't know why Lin Daoqiu made such a request, but since he said so, Xiaoqin can only relay his words to Matsuda.

"No problem, I'll make arrangements right now."

It was just adding an extra translator. Such a trivial matter was not a problem for Matsuda, so he immediately agreed.

After Matsuda and Yoshikawa left, Lin Daoqiu followed Brigitte Lin into the elevator.

In front of Xiaoqin, Brigitte Lin had something to say, but she really wanted to know, Lin Daoqiu asked Dongbao for an interpreter, and even named a male interpreter, what exactly did he want to do?
　Thank you, Shangzhixielei for your big reward!mwah! ╰(*°▽°*)╯
